Written in 2001 at age 16 for a high school crush.

Poetry by Sourav RC.

A poem.

A.N.Trani.

(Adopted from Jack Mannequin’s Hammer and Strings) I pause and think. Inspiration left me the day she did. I doubt love songs will work well for us anyway.

I found myself unable to sleep and so I decided to write about what I wanted to dream and then I was able to sleep.

What is sleep?

About a sleepless night.

A poem about a broken heart.

….the pillows softly whisper my needs.
